   Reference: https://medium.com/@bezdelev/how-to-test-a-python-aws-lambda-function-locally-with-pycharm-run-configurations-6de8efc4b206

   To run unit test run pytest

   The unit test framework is based on python-lambda-local lib. Instead of launch the following command I choose to integrate this into pytest framework to facilitate the local testing of the lambda function.

   python-lambda-local -f handler ./src/magic_giulio.py ./test/test-json/brava-ilaria-1.json
   

5. Create package for lambda

   create_package.sh
   

   the output file : skill_magic_giulio.zip can be used as source for the lambda function
